Q: Hi Peter. I recently bought a small position in SB Safe Bulkers which trades on the NYSE. The financials look fine to me and I thought it a good yield play but the share price has not performed well in the last 3 months. I would appreciate your opinion. Thanks John

Q: Now that Passport Potash (PPI) has entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of North American Potash Developments for cash and shares ($2.7 million left to be paid and 525K shares left to provide) will the company definitely need to do financing?

Also is it normal for an agreement to talk about "bonus" money paid to a company (North American Potash) in the event PPI transfers/sells to someone else?

3.9 million tonnes of measured KCl. Sells for about $400 a tonne. That's $1.5 billion. About 172 million shares. So about $8/share.
Indicated is 37 million tonnes, or about a 10x increase in above values.

What are the errors/dangers in thinking/calculating this way?
Even with share dilution from financing, at 20 cents this seems like an undervalued company?

Thank you for your time.

Q: Hello, I have shares in McEwen Mining Inc. MUX, they had a news release last week as follows:

"we conducting two concurrent rights offerings because we have two classes of shares: common shares of McEwen Mining ("Common Shares"); and shares of Exchange Co. that are exchangeable on a 1-for-1 basis into Common Shares ("Exchangeable Shares"). The Rights Offerings will provide that holders of Common Shares and Exchangeable Shares will participate on an equal and proportional basis with other holders of the same class of shares in purchasing additional shares of the same class of shares at a considerable discount to the current listed price."

Should I subscribe to this? Please explain?

Thank you very much.
